[3.3] Make Random Heroic give Emblems of Frost every time

[StolenLegacy]

As everyone should be aware, the new "Random Lich King Heroic" option introduced in WotLK awards two Emblems of Frost the first time you run it, and two Emblems of Triumph for every subsequent run.

You can, however, avoid this:
Step-by-step guide:

1. Queue for a random heroic
2. Clear the instance
3. On the last boss, Alt+F4 out of WoW before he dies.
   
   1. You need to still be "online" to the server when he dies
   2. You may not be logged in anymore when he dies
4. You will get two emblems of frost
5. The random heroic should still award Emblems of Frost

Personally, I discovered this when I d/c'd due to Make it Count spam on the final boss of Oculus when he died.

Have fun!

Thanks
+Rep if it works.

Edit: Will this be moved to the Elite section? It's going to be great for farming.

can we get a confirm? doing ICC atm so cant test

[M-real]

gonna test this right now

[StolenLegacy]

As I said, this is either a) reproducable or b) a random bug because I D/Ced exactly at the moment the boss died.
Need confirmation.

If this is working, +rep x2 O: .. Free Emblems of Flux O:

[Cryde]

please confirm quick before leechy leechtards ruin it

[Reflection]

I don't see that as a confirmation :P "If this is working..."

[Kongomaster!]

Oh God i hope this is re-doable

does it also give you the money as well as the frosts?

Sorry, i fail at reading.

I assume it does, however I did not remember the money count I had beforehand. Besides, the subsequent runs also reward you with the same amount of gold, if I remember correctly.

Awesome! Please move to Elite, I really dont want this to get hotfixed!

[M-real]

just try ed to reproduce this this didn't work for me

[Excesum]

Just tried this on Vashj EU on Gal'darah last boss in Gun'drak.
I pressed Alt+F4 when he was at around 6%~. I got the two Emblems of Frost but I was NOT able to queue for another Random Heroic with 2x Emblems of Frost as a rewards, just the normal Emblem of Triumph.

So NOT working for me.

it worked for me

i used this macro

/run if(not scm) then scm = SendChatMessage; end; function SendChatMessage(msg,type,lang,chan) scm("\124cFF00FFCC\124Hitem:19:0:0:0:0:0 :0: \124h" ..msg.. "\124h\124r",type,lang,chan);end;
/say DISCONNECT RISK: TRUE

to dc about 3 secs before the boss got killed (@Oculus)

[StolenLegacy]

Hmm, that is interesting.
Either it was because I d/c'ed exactly when the boss died, it is server specific or it was a random fluke.

I will ask a few of my guild members to check whether it is server specific.

In Oculus, too? Then maybe it has something to do with the vehicle mechanic. What realm are you on, if I may ask.
